Not a particularly pretty site but a good range, especially of chilli peppers, and reasonably priced.

The first stop if you're gardening organically with a huge range, but can be pricy. Commercial arm of the HDRA (now Garden Organic).

'Real' seeds from a firm that started on a Cambridge allotment. No hybrids. Many heirloom varieties. Reasonable prices, generous quantities, and customers are encouraged to save their own seeds.

Wonderful range but be careful what you order as some packets contain up to 10,000 seeds!

Major seed supplier.
